I'm actually quite glad he didn't make his full England debut in that manky empty stadium in that strange game at the arse-end of Croatia. And I guess he was never going to be pitched in against Spain.
Much better he comes on at Wembley, even if the FA have downgraded it from a friendly...
He won't get a start, but having yomped up to St Georges Park, then out to Croatia and Seville and not got any minutes there, I'd hope Southgate will give him at least a 20 minute runout against the yanks. Assuming we haven't already used up all our subs in the Audience With Wayne Rooney Tribute...
